My lessons are dynamic, interactive, and tailored to individual learning styles, drawing from years of experience supporting students at both UCLA and Imperial. Whether helping first-years navigate introductory coursework or working with advanced students to prepare for exams, vivas, or thesis presentations, my approach adapts to the needs of each learner.
To keep lessons engaging, I incorporate fun games and creative exercises that make challenging material feel accessible. While I often prepare presentations to explain key concepts, I understand that not everyone learns best through slides. Discussion, hands-on problem-solving, and visual aids are frequently part of my toolkit, ensuring a flexible approach for different preferences.
When I was younger, I was homeschooled for four months, which gave me firsthand experience with the challenges of feeling isolated and managing intense periods of focus without much external support. This experience taught me the importance of balancing hard work with moments to recharge. As a result, I prioritize breaks and inject creativity into lessons to keep energy levels high and prevent burnout.
For first-year students, I focus on building a strong foundation by breaking complex topics into manageable pieces, offering clear explanations, and equipping them with strategies to succeed in their studies. For advanced students preparing for exams, vivas, or theses, I emphasize clarity, critical thinking, and confidence. We work together to refine arguments, polish documents, and perfect presentation skills so they feel fully prepared for any challenge.
I aim to create a supportive, stimulating, and enjoyable learning environment. Whether tackling new material or preparing for high-stakes assessments, I’m here to help you achieve your academic and personal goals confidently and easily.
